1. Time
- It takes time for a fruit to mature and acquire sweetness and become eatable.
Time is a prime factor. Make use of me. That’s all I ask of you.
I have no feeling of separateness.
I invite all to come to me and derive benefit from me.
Dive and know the depth. Watch and discriminate.
Eat and know the taste. I long for people to do that.
- BABA (Bhagavan’s Divine Upadesh, 19.11.2005)
2. The Mother
- Establish the status of the mother in the home as the upholder of spiritual ideas and therefore the Guru of the children. The mother is the pillar of the home, the society, the nation and of humanity itself.
- BABA (Bhagavan’s Divine Upadesh, 19.11.2005)
3. God
- In your daily affairs, do not create factions, or revel in hatred. See the good in others and the faults in yourselves. Revere others as having God installed in them; revere yourself also as the seat of God. Make your heart pure so that He can reside therein.
- BABA (Ladies Day Discourse 1995)
4. Pournami
- In the preliminary stages of Spiritual Sadhana (spiritual practice), name, form and quality all have their part to play in the moulding of the spirit. The Guru destroys the illusion and sheds light; His presence is cool and comforting. That is why this day, a Pournami (Full Moon Day), is allotted for paying due honour to the Guru. Moreover, the Moon is the presiding deity of the mind and Pournami is the day on which the mind has become fully beneficent.
- BABA (God As Guide, Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol 1)
5. The Guru
- The Guru is the physician for the illness and suffering of alternate birth and death. He is adept at the treatment needed for the cure. If you do not get such a Guru, pray to the Lord Himself, to show you the way and He will surely come to your rescue.
- BABA (God As Guide, Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol 1)
